"This is riper still with cassis and red berry liqueur aromas introducing intensely mineral-driven and generous medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent mid-palate concentration, all wrapped in a firm finish underpinned by good tension and beautiful persistence. This possesses unusually good delineation for the vintage as well as moderate austerity which is also relatively rare in this opulent vintage. [From 50+ year old vines - this is Mugnier's favorite vineyard in terms of its fruit quality.]"

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Produces the most delicate and perfumed reds of the Cote de Nuits, prized for floral elegance and silky texture.
2009 in Burgundy was warm and sunny, producing ripe, rich and generous reds of hedonistic charm and supple tannins; the whites are opulent but can lack acidity, making them best enjoyed relatively young.
